JoetheRam Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 I've rang from 5 to 10 and had the same. But rubbish really. Going to try at intervals from now on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sage Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 300 Tickets sold out in 9 minutes. Not sure how that is possible with no online sales. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nijul_cluff Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 What a farce. Didn't get a ticket due to no vacancies online and being hung up to on the phone, our ticketing method is horrible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ollycutts1982 Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 still selling them in the ticket office. Been in queue since 9:30 and they let so many in and shut the doors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Briggsy Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 I struggle to believe they've sold 300 in 9 minutes. That's 1 every 2 seconds! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rammy1 Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 One of the lads in the ticket office said there was 100 ish left on Monday. Thats when I bit the bullet and bought the away membership to garrantee the ticket. There is about 5 telephone lines and long que out the door. It was always gonna be a bun fight. I think the ticket office exagerrate a little on numbers left Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lambrettaman Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 Hull City fan here. Despite suggestions to the contrary, it's not 1976 here, we do have print at home tickets, but not for away fans (as has been mentioned, I don't think anyone does). We even have an away fans bar at the ground, which has a ticket machine so away fans can pay on the day, though it's obviously not much use for a game that's already sold out.

Having been at Pride Park before having queued physically for 3 hours for Forest away a few years back and missing out as they were still selling on the phone, it is fairer.

IMHO I think its harsh to complain. The fans who have attended 5+ game got priority which despite missing out im fine about as iv only done 2-3 away games. Those who haven't been away all season now complaining need to have a word with themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seth's left foot Posted May 11, 2016 Share Posted May 11, 2016 Don't they split any remaining tickets between the ticket office and telephone lines for fairness? That's why there always seems uncertainty over the number of tickets remaining. If I was being sceptical then i'm wondering if some of the tickets were reserved for 'friends' of Sam Rush etc as was allegedly the case at the Shitty ground.

Sorry b4 but that is total BS. Even if its on twitter it's still just a crock of steaming manure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Day Posted May 11, 2016 Author Share Posted May 11, 2016 I strongly dislike the away memberships. This year you had to have either a ST or home membership to buy the away, that's £90 just for the privilege of buying tickets for what, 2 games? Also have to remember whilst I agree priority should be given to those that attend away games, for some fans home games are away games with the travelling involved. Pretty sure a more fairer system should be put in place, 1pt for home game, 3 for an away, x amount of points for priority, then x amount for next phase of sales but that wouldn't generate £££ I guess. Oh well, not overly fussed, knew I wouldn't stand a chance so gave Rupert a ring to connect me back up to Sky Sports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm an away member because I want good seats rather than travelling x hours to be sat behind a corner flag. Also it gets rid of all the stress like everyone trying to buy one today is having. Like the point system though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
